The second dose Covid-19 vaccine drive-up clinic will begin Sunday, Feb. 21, rather than Saturday.
Appointments will still be available starting today morning at 11 a.m. at de.gov/fema.
The one-day delay is due to inclement weather in other parts of the country and the possibility of bad weather here. The weather affecting travel for federal personnel will staff the clinic that will require 200 workers. The site of the clinic is Dover International Speedway.
FEMA was asked to assist with the event as the state faces a backlog of people due for their second dose of Moderna or Pfizer vaccine.
When scheduling for the vaccination event opens, individuals will be able to choose an appointment from Sunday, Feb. 21 through Thursday, Feb. 25. Additional appointments for Friday, Feb. 26, could be opened later based on demand.
The second-dose appointments will only be available for those who received a first-dose from the Delaware Division of Public Health at one of the following events:
- Dover Division of Motor Vehicles on January 16th through January 18th
- Salesianum School in Wilmington on January 18th
- Delaware City Division of Motor Vehicles on January 22nd through 24th
- Georgetown Division of Motor Vehicles on January 23rd and January 24th
